BTW, something else I forgot to mention. CCTV cameras designed for capturing license plates use much larger sensors than typical CCTV cameras. (1/2 inch or more) This would not be practical or affordable in a dash cam. They also use special firmware designed for the purpose and have specific requirements for capture under different conditions. Dash cams would need to be constantly adjusted for changing conditions and the following examples, as I've said, are for fixed position cameras costing around two thousand dollars or more. As these are fixed position cameras they are manually adjusted for the specific conditions they are deployed in rather than the dynamic changing conditions of a windshield mounted camera.
License Plate Capture Traffic Modes
License Plate Capture Traffic Modes
- Traffic Mode 1 - Used for a direct front or rear view of the traffic lane when vehicle speeds are between 12 MPH to 68 MPH (20 km/hr to 110 km/hr).
- Traffic Mode 2 - Used for a direct front or rear view of the traffic lane when vehicle speeds are faster such as a freeway. This traffic mode supports speeds between 56 mph and 112 mph (90 km/hr to 180 km/hr).
- Traffic Mode 3 - Used for an angled front or rear view of the traffic lane when vehicle speeds are between 12 MPH to 68 MPH (20 km/hr to 110 km/hr).
- Traffic Mode 4 - Used for parking lots to monitor parked cars or cars that are moving very slowly. Car speeds between 0 mph and 12 MPH (0 km/hr to 20 km/hr). Camera should be facing the front or back of vehicles directly.
